Must admit i didn't read through the license.mfl, having d/loaded it i've 
noticed that it had fnsplit.c in there, and wanted to see how they've 
done it, when i saw the copyright notice things turned red. 

 FA>> If i don't want people to use my code freely, why would i post
 FA>> it into a snips collection ?  To be a show off ?
 MS> I think you're being a little unfair there, Frank.
Ok, perhaps.
The remark wasn't adressed to Bob per se (which is why i refrained
from mentioning him), it was towards ANY code released into a 
snippets collection carrying a copyright or anything more than a request 
for acknowledgement. 

On reading the license.mfl, the one in snippets isn't bad i suppose. 
Since i know how to put a car together too, i can't wait till Bob will 
start selling cars though...;-)
  
Btw, i think people(me too) put a fair bit of effort into PD code as well.

Here is something to ease the tension..
Programmer was found dead in the shower today with a large shampoo 
bottle in his hand. 
The instructions said: Lather, rinse, repeat.

From the humor echo, hopefully this isn't copyright.
